Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Redredrobin
Redredrobin sits in a cluster of five runners rated 70 in this competitive Class 5 seven-furlong contest at Wolverhampton, yet a progressive profile makes a strong case for preferring her over rivals rated at the same level, and the selection edges ahead of the pair narrowly ahead on ratings — Ziggy's Queen and So Sassy, both on 73 — on the basis that she has more improvement to come. Amelia's Joy, also on 70, represents the chief danger from within the same group, while Ziggy's Queen and So Sassy will demand respect given their narrow advantage at the head of the ratings. The scope for further progress is the decisive factor here, and Redredrobin is the selection.
